I've got blight on my King Edwards and British Queen. It's not so bad yet, but it's around the site, and it's the usual story. People don't understand what it is, do nothing about it, and let their plants just sit there, rotting, spreading the infection.

My greenhouse toms got blight about a month ago, we've had pretty non stop rain and warm weather for 8 weeks so its no shock really. But thankfully most of the fruit was set and still makes lovely roast tomato sauce.

we've had warnings for the past 2 months. Still battling got the tomatoes further than last year but having  to take leaves off everyday to keep it under control . Had to rip up 2 plants so far. Only in polyttunnel not greenhouse not sure why as they are next to each other

Is it a good idea to take all the leaves off the toms in my polytunnel and just leave the fruit, to help them ripen and stop blight spreading? No sign of it yet but all my outdoor ones got it last year.
